Instead of loving your enemies - treat your friends a little better.

Peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations entangling alliances with none.

If you have one true friend you have more than your share.

In friendship as well as love, ignorance very often contributes more to our happiness than knowledge.

Don't walk behind me I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.

Friendship, of itself a holy tie, is made more sacred by adversity.

Friendship with ones self is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.

It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.

Never explain - your friends do not need it and your enemies will not believe you anyway.

Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lose a chance to make them.
